Leptodactylodon cf. stevarti Rödel and Pauwels, 2003 Photo figures 6C–E

TYPE LOCALITY.— “ Forest stream, 550 m a.s.l., 0º37ʹ301”N, 10º24ʹ402”E, near Tchimbélé dam, Haut-Komo Department, Woleu-Ntem Province, Gabon ” .

DISTRIBUTION.— Currently, L. stevarti is only known from the type locality. See comments below regarding the Equatorial Guinea population ( Map 6A ) .

COMMENTS.— Rödel and Pauwels (2003) suggested that the population of Monte Alén recorded as L. albiventris (Boulenger, 1905) by De la Riva (1994) could represent an undescribed species or an additional population of L. stevarti , conclusion also followed by Dewynter and Frétey (2019). De la Riva et al. (2001) described the calls for Río Muni populations.

SPECIMENS EXAMINED.— No specimens were found in the collections we have examined.
